Reinventing Government details the most revolutionary idea of our time -- an idea whose time has come. Its authors give proof positive that government does not have to be a gigantic and inefficient bureaucracy. Instead, it can govern in the true sense of the word, by tapping the tremendous power of the entrepreneurial process and the force of the free market. In case after case, the authors show how this approach already has proven its worth all over the country -- in schools, in slums, in sanitation, in a host of other areas where enterprising and innovative public officials have delivered a far bigger public service bang for every budgeted buck. To cut taxes and improve services at the same time may seem too good to be true. Yet now we have in our hands a way to make it come true -- if we and politicians of all parties and persuasions read it and use it. - Back cover.

Bitcoin is an amazing digital currency used by millions around the world. Bitcoin isn't just another way to buy stuff, though. It's a revolutionary technology that functions without the oversight of a central authority or government.

It's not hard to see why -- the value of a bitcoin has soared from less than a dollar in 2011 to well over $1000 and back down again, with many spikes and crashes along the way.
